Merry Christmas!

I'm a Hobbit... Joy...

Well, I WILL be, at least. I have not gone to see the movie yet, and I'm still at home. I leave tomorrow to go visit my bestest friends until the end of the month.

I wanted so much to be an Elf, but that dress won't make itself, and I've got too much other things on my hands to take care of. Guess I could always finish the dress another time... Not that there's a desire to, anymore. I'm not pressured, and it's not like I'll be dressing up as an Elf any time soon for any other events...

I even made different ears. No more foam for me, unless these new wax ears completely suck... And hairy feet! I'll have the infamous hairy Hobbit feet to match my costume. I'll have to wear flip-flops, of course. I'm sure they won't let me go in bare-footed into the theater. And at least I have the One Ring to wear, just like Frodo!

That's about it for now. Man, I'm really neglecting my homepage... I shall remedy that soon, I hope. Hope...

Anyway - Here's wishing that your candy canes are tasteful, your bells are jingled, and your chestnuts are roasted! Merry Christmas, everybody!

"I got my head, but my head is unraveling.

Can't keep control, can't keep track of where it's traveling.
I got my heart, but my heart is no good,
And you're the only one that's understood."

Ahh... Feels good to have a journal again.

You know what? Life, from my perspective at this point, is pretty decent right now. Tomorrow I get to go see my bestest friends whom I haven't see in a month or two. Whenever we went to Six Flags...? THAT'S how long it's been.

I'm excited about the role play! I officially told the X-Men board I used to role play on that I definitely am gone, now. This time, by choice. I love the Arda board that I play on MUCH better. What I'm excited about is all the new story ideas that will be coming up. There's so many ideas floating around that if we finish a story and need another one, we can almost just about pluck it right out of the air.

As for my Sims, Figwit's outfit is being naughty. I should punish him for that. *wicked grin* I can't get it to be edited right. My best friend Amber, her Sims look AWESOME. I envy her. Heads are alright to edit, but it's the outfits that matter. I have Figwit's head, but I can't just parade him around in Celeborn's robes. *shifty eyes* That would be... quite... strange.

I took a loooooooong hot bath in all my green tea goodies that I got the other day for X-Mas. Very soothing. Maybe it will get me relaxed enough to work on my Elvish dress and get it done. *crosses fingers* Maybe I won't be so tensed and rushed that I keep pricking my fingers or messing up?

Oh my gosh!

SO MUCH has happened, and I've been too exhausted to talk about it all. Thursday, the day after opening day for TTT, I finally got to see it. I think I have a new interest. Of course, I was obsessed over Figwit and Grima, but now, I like Gollum, too! He was so funny and cute! (For a creepy little fellow.) Not cute in an attractive way, but in an 'aww, sad puppy!' kind of way lol

And then tonight, I went with mom to her work's Christmas party... It was just how I expected it to be, like a High School dance with smoke and alcohol, but at least I got to know a few people better. I even slow danced with another woman! *snicker* I don't dance. Not at ALL. But slow-dancing, I can sometimes muster. She was one of the people I was getting to know better as a friend, and I felt bad when she was dancing by herself, so I decided I could be of some use somehow.

I had a few drinks, but being the freakish geek I am, it did nothing to my senses that I was aware of. They gave me a splitting headache, though. They were fuzzy navels. Taste good, but all the smoke that was wafting into my nose and basically the whole environment in general gave me a throbbin' in my noggin'.

I started reading on the Hobbit tonight. It's nearly 2:00 a.m. now, and I spent the last hour reading what I could while nibbling on fruitcake and drinking sparkling grape juice in the coziness of my own bed, with a warm fuzzy pillow to keep myself propped on, in the new snuggly nightgown my mom bought me as an early Christmas present, reading in the warming glow of my giant four-wicked black-cherry scented candle. Life is good. lol

I might write some more tomorrow... depends on if I have to go anywhere or do anything, and how late I sleep. I want to do more work on my webpages and work on my Elvish dress. I'm making a medieval-like Elvish dress for when I go visit my friends for the weekend after Christmas. We're HOPEFULLY going to see Lord of the Rings, The Two Towers (again), and if we do, we're dressing up. I want to be an Elf, but if I don't have my dress done by then, I'll have to be a Hobbit...

Warm wishes to you all, and I hope your holidays go well.

Quel kaima. (Means 'Sleep well' in Elvish)

Well Damn!

I had really had all my hopes set on one little thing today. Little to some, maybe, but HUGE to me! I wanted to see TTT on it's opening day, the first showing, and all that good stuff... But did I get to? No! The only thing I could really care about more than anything these days, and I have to miss it...

I have to wait until tomorrow. I know... It's only one day, and I shouldn't be so upset, but I am. I'm seriously ticked off about this. *grumbles and goes around kicking things*

For one, it's going to set me behind a day on the role play. I expected to make my Eomer character as soon as I got home from seeing the movie, but now I'm forced to wait... *kicks more things*

And two... I REALLY WANTED THIS!!! Figures! This ALWAYS happens to me. *grumblegrumble*

Ok... enough ranting and raving for now... I think in the meantime, I shall just fix up my webpages and put new stuff on them that I came up with last night while being so bored at work.

Stuff...

Hmm... I've been trying to find a way to put my Geocities page in the search engines. Not that I would want too much traffic since I'm quite sure it would shut down the site for an hour each time it got cranky, but it would be nice to see what people think of my Figwit page.

And who knows? Maybe one day, someone will point it out to Bret (McKenzie), and I'll be the next in line for an interview with him or something. Not that I think it would actually ever happen. More like wishful thinking...

I wanted to write more here today, but I need to finish up some role playing posts before I have to get ready for work... I had Severus Snape be the master of the Fangorn Forest. *snicker*

Anyway, It's the last week before I get to have Christmas vacation. I get paid tonight, as well. Sadly, I won't get to see the opening show tomorrow of LOTR TTT... *sniffle* I might have to wait a day or two. TWO?! How can I wait so long? I've had to wait so long already, and now it's just torture, dangling it like that in front of me like a cat with a string that it can't reach. Grf, I say!!!

Ahem... *regains composure* As I get paid, and plan on buying a bow and arrow set within the next few days. Go me! I'll shape myself into an Elf, yet. So as I was saying, I had better go. The clock is ticking, tick-tock, tick-tock.

New Journal (DeadJournal)

(Note: This is a previous journal entry made a long time ago, when I used to use DeadJournal as my main social journal writing place.)

This is my newest journal. I've hopped around from journal to journal on deadjournal, livejournal, and ujournal, and I finally think this is where I shall rest my bones. This shall be the journal that I will link to my homepage, so if anyone should happen to care what drab and dreary things happen in my life, then they can check them out here.

Recently, I have started making a page dedicated to the Lord of the Rings character, Figwit. (It's not on my links page yet, in case anyone tries...) If anyone really knows me, then they know about my pathetic obsession over this fan-created character. It's true! Figwit is not an official character, but just an extra in the movie.

Only about five seconds on screen, and Bret McKenzie was sought out by adoring fans who took quite a notice of him. The lovely ladies at the Figwit Lives website took to calling him Figwit, standing for 'Frodo is grea... Who is THAT?!'. Oh, how thankful I am for them introducing Figwit into my life!

Anyway, that page is coming along nicely... I only have the main page and the disclaimers up. What sucks is that it's a geocities site. Geocities REALLY sucks. You can't hotlink and you can only have so much traffic, or else it gets cranky. But at least it's free... If I was able to have a credit card, I would pay Homestead for some space. I used to love Homestead until they started making you PAY...

On another note, I have been listening to the Flight of the Conchords samples for their CD that they'll have out. Quite funny! I love Bret's voice, and the accent. Accents are adorable. Especially on one where he says something like "Note the mosaic wall, where there are 5,600 tiles on that wall. I know... I counted them all." *giggle* And then the LOTR rejected demo, of course.

Anyway, that's all for now. I could go on forever, but I'll spare you all... For the time being. *grows horns*
